Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The presentation was based on findings from PISA 2022 results and the webinar helped launch the PISA in Focus ‘Managing screen time: How to protect and equip students against distraction’ https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/education/managing-screen-time_7c225af4-en and the OECD Education Policy Perspective ‘Students, digital devices and success’ can be found here - https://oe.cd/il/5yV
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

I’d like to model the digital
behaviour I’m advocating!
• Feel free to livetweet #RONetwork
• Slides are online: Slideshare http://
www.slideshare.net/drhelenwebster/
• We’re recording the talk to create a digital
artefact. We’ll be focussing on the
presentation rather than discussions.

platforms can enhance and be embedded in your work as a
researcher
• an understanding of the issues raised by social and digital media
tools, potential pitfalls, good practice and future impacts on the
profession
• an awareness of and ability to evaluate the various types of
digital tool and make informed decisions about your own

12. Analysing your current
network
• Family and friends
Note which are:
• Senior academics •Same specialism
•Same discipline
• Peers •Same institution
•Same profession/sector
•Same stage of career
• Other academic staff •Same contacts - link the ones who
know each other
• Non-academic staff in HE Which are the best
connected?
• Members of professional
Which are best able to
bodies
help you with your
• Outside HE aims?
13. Characteristics of a
good network
• Mutual - you know them and they know you -
you can approach them, they think of you
• Skilled - contacts need to have means and
motivation to help you
• Diverse and dispersed (bigger isn’t always better)
• Both close and distant, strong and weak contacts
• Horizontal relationships of reciprocity, not
vertical relationship of authority
• People who don’t know each other
14. Networking as a Cambridge
Early Career Researcher

Colleagues?
• Narrow focus
• Groups, not networks
• Fragmentation of
communication
channels, few ‘bridges’
• Hierarchical
relationships

or to your network as a whole - on one
platform or more, if they are interlinked.
• What might they value? You should now
know.

• Pass on links and contacts as well as your
own information
Twitter: #ff Suggest someone else to follow
27. Maintaining your online
network: Engage
• Stop lurking!
• Comment/favourite/like - add a personal
comment if possible

• Remember to thank and follow up!
• Collate and pass on responses for others?
Twitter: pose a question for the other
participants - generally or individually
29. Maintaining your online
network: Respond
• Respond to general calls for help and
information as well as ones directed at you
• A response might be as simple as passing on
a request or contact
Twitter: reply to or retweet a question
posed
30. Building and Maintaining
your online network
• Repeat the process periodically, beginning
with re-exploring new platforms or changes
to existing ones, and reassessing the online
community
31. Bubbles, Echo chambers
and Black holes
• Strategies to break
out of bubbles
• Strategies to
recognise echo
chambers
• Strategies to reach
black holes
Image: ‘Bubble’ by DJMcCrady http://www.flickr.com/photos/djmccrady/18954868/
32. Back to the real world
• Integrate your online network identity with
your real life
• Add your twitter handle to your
conference name badge
• Catch up with Skype or Google Hangouts
• Talk to people about what you’ve
discovered online
33. Creating group
networks

Editor's Notes
Aims for this session - links to RO1 - building an identity and profile as a more static activity, putting information out there. Not broadcasting, one to many, but participatory, many to many.\n
If you don’t have a wifi connection or Twitter account, we’ll use post-its\n
Note any objections, stress hashtag\n
This course isn’t about teaching you the tools, but about exploring the possibilities offered by the digital, networked and open space of the internet and how they might enhance the kinds of things you might want to do online.\nI don’t necessarily want to be evangelical about tools or even being online - I want you to come to an informed decision about the level of engagement which you feel is comfortable and appropriate.\nI can’t give you answers, hence there will be discussion in this session.\n

\n
We’re discussing an activity which can be enhanced and transformed by digital online tools, but mustn’t lose sight of the activity itself and our aims for it. \n
Handout exercise\n\nlist all the people you consider to be in your professional network (types if not names) - here are a few suggestions. Then consider how many of them share characteristics with you. Then look at who knows another member of your network - draw lines. \n\nWho can best give you access to the things you wanted to focus on? Who can best give you access to other people?\n
\n
What other barriers do researchers experience?\n\nBubbles can also be created by algorithms and platforms, as well as Cambridge\n
Tweet or call out responses. Collate. Traditional responses, comment on patterns. In the old days, networking was dependent on a person, your supervisor, and an event, a conference or seminar. You can now bypass these. \n\nWhy is it not working for you? Barriers\n
Any of these can have negative sides...\n
Show of hands - how many people use these for professional reasons, how well do they work?\n\nHandout - pros and cons of each, functionality of each\n
Refer to the mindmap\n\ndiscuss in groups, feedback and then distribute handout\n
\n
gets more and more active rather than passive, and you become more visible.\n
Visibility - you may show up as having viewed a site (eg on LinkedIn) or as a ‘hit’ \n
Livetweeting has become a way to enhance conferences, allowing a many-to-many discussion rather than one-to-many. There is currently some debate about the ethics of this, in terms of public/private\n\nOnline networking can be used to facilitate networking at conferences you’re attending - to find out who’s going, to make contact and break the ice beforehand, to pick up new contacts when you’re there and not miss out on conversations. This is all based around hashtags\n\nYou can also network at conferences you’re not actually at. Either in real time by following the hashtag and seeing who’s interesting, or afterwards if the event is storified, to get more of a rounded view once the tweets have been curated or by looking at presentations online and commenting. \n
Searching is often not easy in academia - we are too specific!\n\nVisibility: You may show up personally as having searched eg Academia.edu LinkedIn\n\nMake it easy for people to search for you - use flavours.me or about.me or other ways to collate various aspects of your online network. See the previous session.\n\nsearching is a one-off event, much networkbuilding may happen fortuitously\n
Visibility: you have now drawn people’s attention to you, which they may or may not reciprocate. You’re still lurking though, but can still learn a lot from your network passively. \n
Hopefully culling people won’t be too visible...\n\nDo this after the session\n
Think about how you offer value - don’t swamp people with too general information\n\nReframe information as personal news or as a resource you think people might find interesting.\n
\n
How to make sure you are heard and visible\n
\n
\n
invite suggestions\n
\n
DO IT! \n
signpost them to the course to explore the tools in a more structured way in their own time, and how they might be embedded in their own work.\n
